How about way to many feral kids roaming the streets. Of course, they got their guns in Indiana where all the guns exist and the crime rate is low. |

The problem wouldn't be a bunch of minorities whose father left their mama the moment he found out that she was pregnant and who were never taught any morals or values.
No, it has to be the guns. |

It is almost impossible to legally own a firearm in Chicago proper. In Illinois no one can even touch a gun without first getting a FOID card. Illinois has total background checks and prohibits any interstate firearms transfers except through licensed FFL dealers with the accompanying background check. All of this doesn't seem to slow down the violence committed daily in Chitown. How would more laws make any difference? |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
I do believe that where there is a choice only between cowardice and violence, I would advise violence. Thus when my eldest son asked me what he should have done had he been present when I was almost fatally assaulted in 1908 [by an Indian extremist opposed to Gandhi's agreement with Smuts], whether he should have run away and seen me killed or whether he should have used his physical force which he could and wanted to use, and defend me, I told him it was his duty to defend me even by using violence. Hence it was that I took part in the Boer War, the so-called Zulu Rebellion and [World War I]. Hence also do I advocate training in arms for those who believe in the method of violence. I would rather have India resort to arms in order to defend her honor than that she should in a cowardly manner become or remain a helpless witness to her own dishonor. — Mohandas K. Gandhi, Young India, August 11, 1920 from Fischer, Louis ed.,The Essential Gandhi, 1962 |
